Giovanni has claimed he has ‘no time to be in a relationship with anyone’ as his focus is on dancing.

‘I’ve been linked to everybody. Debbie McGee, Faye – it’s not just Ashley. I’ve been linked to every single woman around me,’ he said.

Ashley has previously claimed they are just friends and speaking to new! magazine he added: ‘I say the same thing, She is beautiful, absolutely, but there is no chance that we’re going to be in a relationship right now.

‘Never say never but I’m not thinking about being in a relationship with anybody. I fancy everybody. I’m not in a relationship with Ashley at all at the moment.’

Ashley also claimed her time and focus were ‘on her dancing’, but ultimately the one-time favourite and her professional partner Pasha Kovalev lost out on the Glitterball Trophy to Stacey Dooley.

So did Giovanni and his celebrity partner Faye Tozer who, despite achieving three perfect scores, were beaten by firecracker Stacey and her partner Kevin Clifton.
